BIO
:
It was early 1996 that Propellerheads first entered the
marked
. And when they did, they got a top ten hit ("
History Repeating
"). Their first album emerged in 1998,
Deckandrumsandrockandroll
. It became a great success; about half a million copies were sold worldwide. Soon after the release of their album they were about to go on
tour
, but unfourtunately one of the members got
ill
and the tour was canceled.
While Will was forced to stay
home
and nurse his illness, Alex went to New York where he was embraced by the New York
hip hop
community. So while Alex hung around in New York, where be helped produce a
Jungle Brothers
album, Will stayed home. But after a few months of resting and nursing Will was
again
back on his
feet
, while not at full
health
, but he still managed to do some
mix
ing and
fix
ing.
Alex returned to
London
to accept the 1998
Mercury Music Prize
nomination
for
Decksandrumsandrockandroll
on behald of them both, since Will still wasn't fully recovered.
Propellerheads say they're not yet done, and as soon as Will is at full health and ready to swing they'll be back in.
